So, today was going pretty fine, I woke up normal... And suddenly, out of the blue, I just had the overwhelming feeling of being a failure at everything... I'm so tired of this, I expected a nice day...

I am familiar with this---and, often find it is triggered by a thought/judgemental in my head, sometimes related to a memory, sometimes to anticipated anxiety. Remember it can also go away----try tossing it away---or doing something that really uses all your sense to distract you (for me things like plunging into water, dancing to certain (non-triggering) music, or going to a museum/film/even walking and window watching sometimes helps.
[ even been known, at night, to climb a tree or play in the kids playground---and I am 61yo)

Just once maybe a good day would come out of the blue, right? I hope that the day has gotten better for you. Oh, I once heard it said, "failure is an event, not a person"...

Here lately I've been experiencing a surge of interest in my illness, and the need to understand it more; my reason for joining this site. I'm overjoyed already with the information I've learned, and looking forward to getting more educated.

I'm sorry to read you're going through this. You're definitely not alone. I don't know if that helps, but it's exactly the reason I came on to the forums today.

Thanks for the responses, guys... This has been happening me pretty much daily since last week, didn't happen so often before... I've been trying to fight it by doing other stuff, but sometimes it hits like a truck and I just lose myself...
